April 24, 2010 – Famous Last Words
04/24/2010
(Real time entry)
It’s 11am Saturday morning and Dad has been “sleeping” for 38 hours now. He fell asleep at 9pm Thursday and we haven’t had an interaction with him since.
…But WHAT a last day we had! J Daddy-O just couldn’t stop dancing and giving all of his visitors one last amazing day! How he was STILL going and able to stand (sometimes for 40 minutes at a time!!) with no food or drink for 4 days… what an amazing spirit he is!
Sparky is by his side.
